Death on The Dock

Jackie Sharp

Sarah Cooper's peaceful afternoon at Sea Breeze Marina in the sleepy town of Shell Bay is shattered when a fisherman makes a gruesome discovery of a partial dead body in a crab trap.

Suddenly, Sarah and her fellow residents at the Marina - affectionally known as the Wharf Rats - finds themselves caught in their own trap of small-town secrets and long-buried lies.

Forced to team up again with the skeptical Detective Linda Jenkins, Sarah delves into the victim's past, uncovering his obsession with a decades-old disappearance and a shadowy secret society. As they follow the clues, the unlikely duo realizes that the key to solving the murder may lie in the very cold case the victim was investigating.

But as Sarah and Linda get closer to solving the murder, they find themselves in the crosshairs of a killer determined to keep the past buried. With danger lurking around every corner and a growing attraction between Linda and the charming bookshop owner, Alex, Sarah and the Wharf Rats must use all their ingenuity to expose the sinister secrets that have haunted Shell Bay for generations and bring a ruthless killer to justice.

"Death on the Dock" is a page-turning follow-up to "Murder at the Marina" and will delight readers who love cozy coastal mysteries with unexpected twists, endearing characters, and the power of friendship and love to overcome even the darkest of secrets.
